Best Answer

The mass number can be found by multiplying the mass of a single atom by Avogadro's number, that is 6.022 X 1023. In this instance, the product is 23.0, and the element is probably sodium, which has this gram Atomic Mass. mass number is less than 1, which does not correspond to any real, stable atom. The element could conceivably be a rare isotope of neon or magnesium.
